Unusual Rentjong

[asomotif]

Sorry, IMHO an old blade in an new fanatasy dress.

Cleaning the blade will not help much.
Often these blades are laminated, but with this heavy pitting it will never become a good looker.

Try the search function on this website for rentjong and/or rencong
There are several nice examples in various threads.
From tourist , to good old "Aceh war period"pieces and even "royal" examples.

Good luck

Willem,

thank's for comment. That's what I thought already. The blade is cleaned but the pittings really deep. by the way, i have a nice rentjong. I was unsure if a dress like this maybe common in other region then Aceh.
